Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Where are the two 3.5mm audio outputs?

A: The manual lists Phones 2x unbalanced 3.5mm terminals. However, only one 3.5mm audio output can be found on the rear of the handle along with one 3.5mm input on the rear middle right.

Q: 2. How well does this camera shoot in low lighting conditions? Does it do a good job? And how accurate is the auto mode for iris and focus? Thanks

A: While low light performance is all relative, the JVC HM-850U does pretty good. It has a minimum illumination of 0.15 lx which is good for a 1/3 image sensor.

Q: 3. What is the difference between the 850 and 890 models?

A: The two principle differences between the 850 and the 890 is that the 890 has a 68-pin connection that accommodates JVC fiber or multi-core camera modules that can turn this camera into a full studio camera. Also since the big feature on both cameras is live streaming, the 890 also has a HD-SDI input, (not just an output) that allows it to record another camera's live stream feed.

Q: 4. Can other lens be used with this camera??

A: Yes it can be, you can use other 1/3 lenses on this camera. We have some nice options from Canon and Fujinon that will work, they are B&H Numbers CAKT14X44KRS, FUXT17SX45BR, FUHTS18X42BQ and FUHTS18X42BE.

Q: 5. I don't see an ISO setting. There's a gain setting but I need to sync the settings to a light meter.

A: Traditionally, video cameras do not have ISO ratings because they didn't work like film cameras. Since there is no listed ISO for this camcorder, you will have to create your own ISO. Do to that: hang and evenly light a 18% grey card and fill the camera frame with grey. Set the camera to 0 gain, no filter, no shutter, auto exposure. Set your meter to 60th of a second or 30FPS with 180 degree shutter. Now dial the meter's ISO up and down until you match the camera's f/stop. That is your ISO. Over on the gain switch, 6db doubles that ISO number and the 12db quadruples it. I suspect you will want to only use 0db and on occasion go to 6db with 12db used only in emergency.
